I hated Snoke. Almost ruined it for me. Otherwise solid and looking forward to the next one. Rey is hot. John Boyega seems like a really cool dude off-screen. I'm glad they killed off Han. He was looking super old and used up. He wanted to be killed off in Jedi. I think he probably only agreed to do this one of they killed him off.

Took the family yesterday and we all greatly enjoyed the movie. The Snoke (sp?) thing bothered me as well, but not to the point of almost ruining it. I did feel, though, that they did a really good job of casting the new wave of stars, which made the direction they took with Snoke all the more puzzling and disappointing.

Have to admit, that with everything that had gone on in the movie to that point, when Luke finally makes an appearance, my first thought was he deserves a good kick in the nads.

There are some very interesting theories on Snoke... Basically that he is Darth Plagueis, the Sith Master over Palpatine that in Episode 3 Palpatine claims he killed... He is the Sith with such power that he can create life from nothing and stop people from dying... The theory is that he created Anakin (since Anakin wasn't conceived), and stopped himself/faked his own death...

Based on the producers saying Snoke is actually about 7 feet tall and thin without the hologram/force ghost, he is likely of the Munn race, which is the same race as Plagueis... and although this book is not canon, the cover of the Darth Plagueis book sure looks like Palpatine is kneeling before Snoke:

Such an awesome movie. I was disappointed not to see Luke until the final few minutes but other than that, I loved it.

My guess is that Kylo Ren moves from the dark side which Annakin never could. He is the one that defeats Snoke.

I can't wait to see the movie again. Was so jazzed when I walked out of the theater.

why don't you run back to the sandbox where the rest of the kids are playing so the adults can have a discussion...it's over there....you see Howie, he's over there with PMS knocking over other kids sandcastles...looks like fun.

I was never a fan of JT until he started going on Saturday Night Live. Now I love the guy, music, everything.

He's fucking hilarious.
